Peak Lenin Expedition 2002
Peak Lenin (7.134m), Kyrgyzstan
22 August Ramon and Boris left for Kyrgyzstan to climb Peak Lenin (7.134m). At first they would join an international expedition. Beyond basecamp they planned to go their own way.
16 september Ramon and Boris came back from climbing Peak Lenin (7.134m) in Kyrgyzstan. Ramon unfortunately got sick several times, still reaching camp 2. Boris went for the summit solo and got as far as 6800 meter. They were part of an international expedition, but from basecamp they planned to do the climb as a mini-team of just two. Read more »
Dutch Bolivia Expedition 2001
6 x 6.000 in Bolivia
2 climbers... 4 weeks... 6 mountains... total elevation: 37.998 meter... That's the crazy challenge Ramon and Boris want to go for.

Farmers violently blocking roads all over the country; early cancelled summitattempts because of illness, fever, throatinfection and never ending coughs; sleep disturbing sandstorms; 100 km/h wind just 150 meter below the summit... and worse.
